Default I got a couple questions for you guys

Alright so i traded my car off on a 94 cherokee. I've always wanted a jeep and i love the trade. It has i lift which i believe is a 6 inch and 33x12.5x15 tires on stock rims. I want to know if i should switch to a long arm lift. Is it worth it? What would i gain? And if i should change it whose should i go with? I have big plans for it, just looking for some help figuring it all out. I'm also from northern Minnesota and i was looking for a good place to take it out. Thanks.

how is it lifted? pictures of the lift? of the cherokee? detailed pictures of the steering?


those would help out alot!

and a long arm set up will gain you a better ride quality as well as more droop when flexing.

There are a number of things you need to look into when going long arm. Like long travel shocks, limiting straps and longer brake lines


welcome to the site btw!

i finally got to use that smilly....... long arms are definitly worth it. the ride alone is great. the flex compared to short arm. there is no comparision. if you plan to crawl with it go long arm. I have ironrock. look at my threads and see what the long arm kit will give you.
